Take part in our latest readers’ poll on a current topical issue. Two weeks ago, Employee Benefits reported that three-quarters of UK employers are still running diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programmes and protecting DEI budgets, according to research by employee experience platform Culture Amp.

Its survey of more than 1,000 UK organisations found that 74% of respondents have a DEI programme, with 26% of these having increased funding compared to the previous year. One-third (33%) have a DEI programme with the budget remaining stable.
